Feasibility Studies of Exclusive Diffractive Bremsstrahlung Measurement at RHIC Energies

Abstract

Feasibility studies of an observation of the exclusive diffractive bremsstrahlung at RHIC at $\sqrt{s} = 200$~GeV and at $\sqrt{s} = 500$~GeV are reported. A simplified approach to the photon and the scattered proton energy reconstruction is used. Influence of possible backgrounds is discussed.
